Data Backups & Archiving

 

Speaking of DATA, for many years we have studied the various ideologies and methods for  Backing-up  or  Archiving  DATA.

 

Daily Backups are quick and extremely easy to perform. It can, and someday probably will make the difference. The Hard Disk Drive spins at speeds from to 90 (laptops) to 120 (desktops) times per second.

Servers: 250 revolutions per second.

 

It's one of the very first hardware (failure) issues an otherwise reliable computer may have. Assume that all HDD's will fail sooner or later.
»  So, be prepared!

 

»  But keep in mind, BACKUPS can fall prey to malware...
...call and let us explain the Solution.  «

 

Archiving Data is a great way to preserve files that never change, such as your precious Family Photos.

 

We can also suggest methods to  Organize Your Data,  enabling you to store, restore, and find your files with ease.

 

With today's Internet speeds,  On-line Backups  can be another great option. Not only will your files be replicated on an alternate storage Medium, but additionally at an alternate physical Location; great in the case of a real disaster such as a flood or fire, home / office invasion, etc.

 

Performance Issues

 

If your computer is Running Slow, getting  Sluggish  or down on its knees in  Degrading Performance,  and it seems that the only solution is a new machine, let us  Analyze the Performance  and see if we can help.

 

Remember how the computer used to be: fully Functional and Robust? Let us give it a  Status Check  and see if we can help you avoid the purchase of a new unit.

 

Is your computer having trouble  starting Windows  or  shutting down Windows? Windows needs to be “cleaned” from time to time. Typically, the performance will degrade with the passage of time.

 

Application Programs  can develop issues as well.

 

Software Installation

 

Install  or  Re-install  the Windows operating system

Windows 7 (32/64-BIT), Windows 8.1 (32/64-BIT), Windows 10

Windows Vista & XP are official archaic, but we can still revive them.

 

Upgrade to a later version of the Windows operating system

but if the system has a Multi-Core processor,

chances are good that it can use Windows 7.

to better suit your situation

A good rule for children is to avoid allowing them to have Internet access in a closed area such as a Bedroom. It's a matter of their safety!

Adult presence or supervision is highly recommended. There exists a lower class of individuals, found all over the world, preying upon anyone they can, especially the young. Too many are successful with our children. As adults, it's our duty to protect them.

Receiving Emails and using “Smart” Phones

 

Learn to Receive Multiple Email Accounts on your Computer and/or your Smart Phone.

If you're a business person or anyone with multiple email accounts (addresses), but don't have the time nor the inclination to check all those accounts on a regular basis, you can:

a- Configure your computer's Email Client software program to receive multiple accounts via the same interface.

This way, you'll see all your incoming email messages on the same program, in the same Windows User Account.

 

b- Configure your Smart Phone Email Client mobile phone software program to receive multiple accounts.

This way, you'll be automatically notified of your incoming email messages even for accounts that you otherwise rarely (if ever) check.

 

Multi-media | Tablets | Cell Phones

 

Have us connect your Multi-media System properly for the best Audio & Video presentation.

 

If you're looking for a reader or tablet type device such as the Nook, Kindle or a full-on Tablet let us help you decide which one best suits your needs. The earlier style devices are great (and very light weight) for simple book reading, whereas the newer High Definition units are great (and still light weight) for all types of media including the newest Films and Television programs.

 

If you use an Apple based iPhone or iTouch, or a Google based Android or Galaxy mobile phone, and Wi-Fi, you can control the Media on your laptop or computer. If it's connected to speakers, a TV or your stereo (or multi-channel unit) you can experience it on those devices as well.

 

Imagine soaking in your spa, entertaining in the back yard or even your neighbor's yard; you can control your media remotely.
